Francine E. Lahm is the Executive Director of the law firm of Belluck Law, LLP. Recently hired to augment the strategic vision of the Firm, she collaborates with other key advisors to manage all professional support services and business operations. She is proud to have accepted this exciting role to be effective for the lawyers and professional support staff who are dedicated to doing all they can to help the Firm’s clients.
Beginning her career at Schulte Roth & Zabel LLP, Francine quickly climbed the ranks to earn managerial and director-level roles. Francine then worked in-house as Manager of the Legal Department of Unilever Americas where she cultivated a high level of acuity in the legal management arena and was recognized for the work she performed to bridge the gap between corporate legal departments and the clients they treasure.
She cares deeply about DEI initiatives, the environment, and the social and governance space. Giving back is also important in every aspect of business life and she has plans soon to incorporate these initiatives into the thread of her current role.
Prior to joining Belluck Law, LLP, she worked as the Administrator in the New York office of Pallas Partners LLP and was responsible for the administrative operations working in close collaboration with the firm’s Chief Administrative Officer in London.
She also was the HR strategic partner for the 80-attorney insurance defense boutique, Mendes & Mount, LLP, where she managed all things people related (and then some!)
Francine is also a past winner of the ALA Volunteer of the Year Award. She has a deep understanding of how clients and lawyers work together to pursue common goals and use strategic insight to achieve successful results.
She currently serves as a Vice-President of the Board of Directors of the New York City Chapter of the Association of Legal Administrators. She is co-Team Lead for Special Events, co-Team Lead for the Business Partner Team as well as Team Lead for The Professional Journey Support Group, a special interest group that helps chapter members navigate their professional journeys at every point in their legal administrative career.
When not wearing one of her professional hats, Francine enjoys dancing, reading, cooking and family and spiritual life with her husband, Gary, their three daughters, Emily, Danielle and Olivia and her dog, Benji.
